Wellington is New Zealand's centre of government and the world's southernmost capital city. It is also the country's cultural capital, third most populous urban area in New Zealand and home to many museums, theatres and arts festivals.

Background

After the June 2013 storm the Council placed a temporary rock barrier in the broken section of the seawall to protect the footpath and road. Before any decision is made on the options to address the damage, the Council sought to hear your preferred option for managing long-term coastal hazards in the area.

Tonkin & Taylor have been commissioned by the Council to undertake a high level assessment of coastal processes operating within Island Bay. They have evaluated likely future shoreline evolution and effects on the existing infrastructure, and assessed potential future management options to improve long-term resilience.
